Story
About the revolutionary movement of the Persian peasants and townspeople against the dominance of the English tobacco monopolies. Persia in 1891 - the arena of a fierce battle between foreign monopolies. In the struggle between English and Russian capital, the monopolists of England win. The country is left without bread. The impoverished peasants and artisans - Khas-Pushi - are rebelling against foreign colonialists. Initially, the uprising is led by merchants and clergy. The urban poor are smashing the English embassy. At a critical moment, merchants and clergy are eliminated from the struggle, treacherously leaving the masses. The Khas-Pushey Union, flying the Sharia flag, is shedding its religious fabric. The urban poor are becoming aware of their true class interests. And although the uprising was crushed, the idea of the need for social struggle remains in the minds of the oppressed people.
